    About this ebook

    The city of Pythia has long ruled over the kingdoms of the earth and the people called the Danaans. But for days, a storm has swirled above its skies, and rumor has spread of an act of horror committed in its temple.
    Cleon, a rebel slave, finds himself at the center of the ESCHATON, the end if not of the world then of the nation.
